Music, Activism, and Rising Above with Gwen Levey
Award-winning musician, activist, and Rise Above Justice Movement co-founder Gwen Levey joins Working Girl for a deeply honest conversation about survivorship, activism, reproductive justice, LGBTQ+ rights, and the emotional reality of doing this work in today’s political climate.
Gwen shares how the overturning of Roe v. Wade changed the trajectory of her life and music career, what it means to build community online while facing constant backlash, and why rest, self-care, and connection are essential for anyone fighting for change.
We also talk about surviving sexual violence, intersectional feminism, social media censorship, country music, political awakening, and how ordinary people can start getting involved in their communities.
